Tumwater, WA Apartments for Rent

Nestled at the southernmost point of Puget Sound, Tumwater offers a blend of history and natural beauty for those seeking apartments in Washington state. As the oldest permanent settlement on Puget Sound, Tumwater sits where the Deschutes River meets Budd Inlet. The city's name, derived from Chinook Jargon meaning "waterfall," pays homage to the cascading Tumwater Falls Park, a centerpiece of local outdoor recreation.

Located just two miles south of Olympia, Tumwater combines a peaceful residential setting with easy access to the state capital. With an average rent of $1,571 for a one-bedroom apartment, the city offers relatively affordable housing options. The area features several neighborhoods like Littlerock and Bush Prairie, each offering distinct residential experiences. Notable landmarks include the historic Schmidt House and the Tumwater Historical Park, while outdoor spaces like Pioneer Park and the Deschutes Valley Trail system provide recreational opportunities throughout the city's 17.5 square miles.
